Wholly Devoted

I like to give my necklaces a name and have called this one, "Wholly Devoted". I've been having fun playing with all the new little trinkets that I've been picking up at estate sales and online. In case you are unaware, online shopping can be a very dangerous activity. May I add, very, very dangerous? LOL


I have a multitude of packages that I have already received and have more on their way. Every morning, I am like a puppy dog watching out of the window for my mailman to stop by.


For this necklace, I used a portion of a vintage rosary, a religious medal, and the most adorable tiny glass vial. I had gone to an estate sale and picked up a really old German Catholic book of novenas. It is from 1841. Since the book as in bad condition (obviously well-used), it didn't bother me to remove pages and even (dare I say it?) rip them apart.


I am hoping to put together more in the next few days. Wish me luck!
